Donald Trump Is Just a Sign of the Much Deeper Failings of the United States — And the World

The author is a major pessimist and couldn't nor wouldn't have an optimistic thought if it slapped him across the face. He hates this country and everything it's done for the world. The world isn't moving in the direction HE believes it should be going so f**k you all and your love of this country. He's a globalist piece of shyte who feels the need to help bring this nation down.

The National Institute, of which the author is a fellow, is affiliated with "The Nation" publication who were sympathetic to communist Russia and huge critics of McCarthyism. "The Nation" was banned from public school libraries due to it's pro-soviet writings.

Just look at the pessimism in the titles of his articles.
